and was this a good score?
 
It is a good score but if the angel is already picking on LPS chances are it won't stop and the only way to get it to stop would be to remove it IMO... I'll gladly take it off your hands if you'd rather keep the angel :D
 
+1 to what Dave said. Time for the fish to find a new home.

So, what happened to the fish?

in dads tank.... fishing it out of there sat.... then to the fish store.... told him not to put it in his tank.... but he couldn't refuse a free fish... evin a free coral eating fish.
 
I still think you should let me take that Acan off your hands...:)

Keep the Angel, you love him and it will be too hard to fish him out...you really don't want to disrupt the tank like that, right.

you know I will give the Acan a good home...:rolleyes:


:p

did i rely get a good deal? dose it have a name?
i just picked it because it was cool looking
 
a name...? uh yeah Acanthastrea lordhowensis...sorry I am not into made up designer names. What you have there is a sweet Acan. I am sure whatever you paid it was a good deal if you are happy with the piece. I have no idea what you paid or where you got it. But it is nice, and I don't have it...yet.
 
U stole my idea B! lol! but, between u an me Coralcor ... Good call ;)

im verry happy with it.

once it gets bigger you will have to help me frag it B.

and i guess ill post more pics tomorrow.
 
Awesome color on the acan..... too bad u had to get rid of the fish! I think I need to go to CRA tonight and see if I can pick up my first one.
 
here is a pic of the acan out of the frag rack where it has been for about a week... dosent look as good as it did with more light. might move it to get a little more light just so i looks a little better.
